[Xoom General] Pihrana:
I like pretty much everyone else has at least 1 months Verizon 3G coverage that I do not intend to keep. Especially since I have a Rooted EVO 4G with WiFi tether, and Sprints unlimited Data....

But for some reason the Xoom will not FIND my EVO 4G WiFi. A colleage in an opposite office has a device (iPhone) which finds and connects to the EVO 4G WiFi hot spot no problem, but not the Xoom. It fails to even see it !!

Anyone else had this issue (tethering Xoom to a Cellphone WiFi Hotspot)

Anyone have any idea's on how to fix it? I have tried security settings, changing SSID, changing WiFi channels, changing IP ranges etc etc. Nothing has worked so far :(
[Xoom General] Sirchuk:
Please, search before posting.

The xoom cannot connect to an ad-hoc network, like from your evo. Check the thread regarding tethering with Bluetooth instead.

There may be a fix but I don't think there is right now.
[Xoom General] Droid.Modr:
I haven't read all of the posts on this to narrow down the exact reason, but I can tell you that the Xoom can connect to your EVO. I have been WiFi tethered to my EVO 4G since last Thursday using the stock Sprint application.

For what it is worth ... by the way my EVO is not rooted.
[Xoom General] reezy23:
Having same issue!!!

I am not sure what to do I have a atrix and it wont recognize it either I am probably going to have to return it :(
[Xoom General] johnnobts:
can't tether it to my atrix either. crazy.
[Xoom General] RadDudeTommy:
As stated earlier, unrooted Xoom devices are unable to connect to ad hoc wifi spots. A good way to test if your phone is an ad hoc devise just flip by Mc Donald's, if your Xoom can see the free hotspot your devise is emitting an ad hoc network. (PS3'S and other similar gadgets cannot connect to ad hoc)

I can almost guarentee it is not your Xoom.
[Xoom General] Pihrana:
I read pretty much read every post on WiFi tethering (The forums actually do a search for you when you type the title of your new thread) and I was not happy that they answered my question. They are all variations of the same subject, but not specific to mine...

As it goes I have fixed the Issue. All it took was re-downloading the WiFi Tether application from the Market place and all is working. No idea why the Xoom couldn't see the WiFi network and an iPhone could but it's fixed now. So Bye Bye Verizon :)

A WELL happy Xoom and EVO 4G owner - Android Rulez !!
[Xoom General] reezy23:
So what should I do to get it to recognize my atrix?
[Xoom General] RadDudeTommy:
In this order: try his method by redownloading the app, also try restarting the devices before the attempt. If this don't work verify that your atrix is not emitting an ad hoc network. If its not, exchange your Xoom.
[Xoom General] Pihrana:
Not having the same hardware might be the fundamental problem but this is what I suggest....

1) - Make sure you have super user permissions...

2) - Un-install and then re-Install WiFi tether... https://market.android.com/details?id=android.tether&feature=search_result

3) - Start the WiFi tether app on your Atrix perhaps changing the SSID to something other than default, then search for the Hotspot on your Xoom.

Fingers crossed it will locate it, connect to it, and maybe it work...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hmoobguy:
Did you resolve this? I ran into this and found that OI File Manager allows me to select and use the new image.

Before resolving this, I was using Astro which returned blank icons or none.

I don't think the kernel used in this ROM is updated to be dual compatible for both DHD and Inspire 4G like CoreDroid or Android Revolution. Although i wish it was so I could give it a shot.

Im currently trying to decide between CoreDroid and Android Revolution as my daily (CM7 is still way too buggy).

I dont know if such an app exists, but is there an app where I can boost specific colors, like I can on my TV?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] diablo009:
I think this would need custom kernel to be present, which in turn needs boot loader to be unlocked.

Hi all, i just recently rooted my i9000m (baseband version I9000UGJL2) with psneuter on superoneclick, easy stuff, i came from a desire z so in comparison the root process was much easier, anyways i

went to rom manager, flashed CWM, reboot into recovery, and voila, stock 3e recovery, no reinstall packages option, and apply update.zip not working. What's wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] awesomoman:
nevermind, searched it on forums, used CFroot
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Xanaki:
Had the exact same problem, you will need to do this in order to make it work. If you dont have it already download Root Explorer from the Market to apply this fix.

I know that people have posted about deleting the gtalk app off their incredible and it causing complete disaster to their phone. I have done this but I have the gtalk.apk file on my sd card and will not install. The superuser app will not install either. The root explorer app is working but the titanium backup crashes when I try and open it. And when I try and unmount my phone as storage on my computer, it will not recognize the sd card. How in the world do I get this gtalk.apk file to install. Please and thank you for your help! I am in desperate need.

what rom and kernel are you running?

why don't you just install google talk from the market?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] incredibledroid:
I rooted with unrevoked if that is the rom? The kernel is:

And I looked in the marketplace but I never comes up. Is it undr a different name or something? thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
So you are stock, just rooted. I thought it was in the market, but I believe I am wrong about that. Superuser should be installed with unrevoked if i'm not mistaken. I have a feeling that it didn't fully root, or something went wrong.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] incredibledroid:
I was fully rooted, and then I deleted gtalk and it has gone all to hell. And I can't even find the directions on how to unroot with froyo. I would even do that and start all over if I can.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Thrashavich:
So this week i'll be purchasing about three or four cheapo silicone/rubberized cases from amazon for the inspire 4G.

I will also purchase either a commuter or a case mate tough.

I'll be sure to post a comprehensive review and pictures comparing all the cases.

I need some help deciding which of the two to get though.

Commuter vs Case Mate Tough.

Opinions?

Do they both protect the camera when the phone is layed flat on a surface?

Thanks guys.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MatUK.8:
I have the case-mate tough. It protects the screen and camera when laid down flat. I like it a lot. It is very simple and the hard outer piece is nice for sliding in and out of pockets. Have not seen the commuter in person so no opinion on it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] 1meanrex:
From watching the various desire hd YouTube videos it seems they're pretty much the same except that the otterbox has the little covers for the mini USB and audio jack. I just ordered me up the case mate off at&T's website using the 25% off accessories code. Hoping for the best.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Thrashavich:
Hm. How do I obtain this 25% off accessories code?

I just purchased it form ATT
[HTC Inspire 4G] 1meanrex:

[HTC Inspire 4G] sheanzyy:
As personal preference, go with the Otterbox commuter. Its not bulky whatsoever. I'm positive you won't be disappointed.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pheno.menon:
My Commuter is the best phone case I've ever had. I'm sure the Casemate is pretty nice too.. vote with your wallet :P
[HTC Inspire 4G] mikejames07:
I have both and I prefer the Otterbox because the Casemate back is more slippery. The Casemate does feel a little thinner to me. I currently don't have either on because I just love the way the phone feels =)... I'm sure I'll pay for it though.
[HTC Inspire 4G] eric70634:
I picked up the casemate tough this afternoon and an invisible shield screen protector (which I hate n sucks to install) and I love this case. I couldn't even find anywhere to order the otter that wasn't sold out or over $40
[HTC Inspire 4G] rajmahal772:
ordered case mate tough for 27$ shipped off att with the link
[HTC Inspire 4G] jflexe99:
I have tried all of them...Otterbox is the best IMO. On any phone...
[HTC Inspire 4G] Thrashavich:
I'll go with the casemate tough.

I don't like the "Otter" logo on the back of the otter case and the fact that the buttons are covered.

Other than that I don't think I would have a preference.

Will post review as soon as i receive it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] wrenhal:
what about the Seido cases?

Anyone know about or prefer the Innocase II/ Platinum@BestBuy??
[HTC Inspire 4G] telltell624:
I just bought the platinum series today from best buy for 35.00. I like it so far. It came with the holster and it doesn't put a lot of bulk on the phone.

UPDATE

Case holds up great. Just slipped in ice and landed on the phone. The phone did not come out the holster at all. No physical damage to the phone, but the ice did break and the phone got water damaged. I was able to exchange it at Walmart though. Seems like a good case besides no water protection lol.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Askal007:
Jumped the gun on the Otterbox Commuter and I have to say I really like it. It came in 2 parts, the rubber and the hard case which goes together. The volume buttom and the power button has a nice feel to them, doesnt make pushing them any harder. The screen protector that it came with was a bit smaller than the Inspire screen because the box actually says it is for Desire HD.
[HTC Inspire 4G] camokatu:
Going to visit mobilecity in China town today for cases, do you think Case-Mate in blue is manly? Can't post link yet.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rajmahal772:
just got my case mate tough and i love it ... the only problem i have is the volume buttons are a little harder to push but power/lock is unaffected. however that doesnt really cause a major problem for me because i use the audio manager widget most of the time
[HTC Inspire 4G] jbizz:
did you make sure that the volume rocker was all the way thru the slot on the side of the hard plastic? i had this issue too, and thats what fixed it.

[HTC Inspire 4G] blainetaylor:
Does the rubber part of the case collect alot of pocket lint?
[HTC Inspire 4G] minicoop7:
Got the casemate tough from eBay for 18 bucks. Happy so far. Makes the phone thicker though.
[HTC Inspire 4G] 1meanrex:
Finally got mine today usps sucks. The case is nice though I really like it compared to my bro's otterbox commuter. I actually think the phone now feels better with the case on. I dont know about you guys but with the screen being so big my hand was double pressing everything so this is a plus.

[Atrix 4G General] smoothjeff:
I have Verizon so I don't have a sim card but I want to get past the "No SIM card. Emergency calls only" screen so I can play with the phone before I sell it.

I tried touching the four corners, I tried typing stuff on the emergency dialer..any ideas how to get into the operating system?
[Atrix 4G General] Gene_Bailey:
Actually if anyone has a clue how to do this it would be much appreciated! I just got one but my AT&T dealer line isn't active yet so I don't have a sim card that is provisioned yet, and Motoblur keeps giving me a "Motoblur is Busy" error message so I can't even access my old motoblur account or make a new one >.< Please if anyone has any idea whats wrong help us out!
[Atrix 4G General] Rred:
Supposedly, you can't make this phone get past emergency dialing without a SIM card, and then all it will do is require MotoBlur signup before it goes any further.

Supposedly.

But there are boot options, if you boot the power while holding the VOL- key. Explore at your own risk, one of those might hose the phone. Supposedly, at least one can do a complete factory reset.
[Atrix 4G General] lostsoulktash:
Just sign into your motoblur account and it'll let you use the phone. Connect to wifi if you have it to get pass the motoblur screen. Press menu and some options will pop up including wifi settings.

Hope that helps.
[Atrix 4G General] smoothjeff:
You can't even get to the MotoBlur sign in part, you're stuck at the screen saying no sim card.
[Atrix 4G General] b14ck0ut:
I got my atrix on release day but am waiting for my employee line to become active so I currently have bi connection. What you need to do is take any sim card from a friend or an old one. Put it in the phone. Connect to wifi and do the blur log in/sign up. Then you are good. It'll only work on wifi till you get it on whatever carrier you're planning on using. But it's better than nothing.

My suggestion would be to get a friend who is on att to go into a store and say his sim was lost and they'll give him a new one and deactivate the old one. Use that old one till you have service of your own.

Good luck

bl4ck0ut
[Atrix 4G General] AaronLMC:
Figured out a solution

I figured out how to get past the SIM card requirement by playing with the boot options. The phone still requires you to register for a MotoBlur account, but I can live with that.

1. Load Boot menu by holding the Volume Down button while starting the phone.

2. Press the Volume Down button until the option "Boot Android (NO BP)" appears at the top of the screen.

3. Press the Volume Up button to select this option.

4. On load, the phone will bypass the No SIM card screen, but will ask you to register a MotoBlur account. You will have to connect to Wifi and either create a new account or sign in to one that already exists.

Luckily, this process only needs to be performed once. It looks like the phone remembers this boot option for next time :)
[Xoom General] Flaunt77:
While I know that honeycomb does not support this yet (but likely will with the sd card upgrade), there have been rumors that the micro USB slot on the XOOM is actually capable of hosting.

Does anyone know this for sure?

Basically, im trying to decide between the XOOM and the unamed Toshiba tablet.

I like that the Toshiba tablet has Hosting with a full usb port, and Im wondering if the XOOM will be able to do the same (albeit with an adapter).

Though, I dont even know if The toshiba tablet will release in the US any time soon.

ALL THANKS TO ROEBEET WHO HAS ENABLED HOSTING OF THUMB STICKS ON THE XOOM! - scroll through this conversation to get to roebeets post!

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Motorol...1218305636450&skuId=1946179&st=xoom&cp=1&lp=1

Look down the page a bit for ...

Note: Optical drive not included

Compatible with optional external recordable CD/DVD drives (not included).

This would imply it does.
[Xoom General] joeski27:
Yes, it most definitely will have that capability. Please see the thread here that I started a while back on the Moto Owners Forum, where I was able to get not only Moto reps to confirm this, but also was fortunate enough to get the actual Moto tech who worked on the Xoom's USB to chime in with some info. My guess is, the same software update that will enable the microSD card will also enable the USB host capabilities of the micro USB port (both external data storage).
[Xoom General] shadowclock:
The USB hosting being locked down software wise, at least initially, is being done to get some quick cash on their accessories. The unlock that they MIGHT provide later would allow 3rd party keyboards and other accessories access to the Xoom.

I really doubt that they will do a software lock later but the fact that it is software locked and not hardware means that someone here in XDA will be able to unlock it for us eventually.
[Xoom General] Germwise:
how hard would it have been to put a full sized USB. Seriously.
[Xoom General] Neo3D:
It would make the tablet thicker. micro USB is fine since most of us already have tons of those cables.
[Xoom General] inspiron41:
look at the thickness of Notion Ink Adam becuase of 2 USB adapters
[Xoom General] Flaunt77:
I did a bit of research on this.

So it appears the same situation exists for the dell streak. It also has USB host like motorola (confirmed by moto engineer).

Some guy here: http://linuxslate.com/cgi-bin/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1286562168

Shows how to get USB drives mounted and usable on dell streak running android 2.1 - this appears not to work on android 2.2 and higher.

OF NOTE: with the right cable (apparently some exist that support OTG hosting capabilities) and the right developer - we can absolutely get USB hosting onto the xoom.

Likely, a couple of scenarios exist to getting this working. First, we wait for the microsdcard update for the xoom - which may make it easier to host from the USB port; Second - we wait for a smart developer to port this sort of code into and app or custom rom; Third - we wait for the toshiba tablet to come out (as it has a full USB port for host) and steal its rom and port it to the Xoom.
[Xoom General] roebeet:
I have a Nokia OTG cable that I misakenly bought for an Archos 32 (didn't work), and I tried it on my Xoom. I can use a USB keyboard with it, FYI. But a USB mouse I tested does not work.

USB thumb drives may not work as there's no mount point - I might try to create a custom boot.img and test that out, if I have time.

This is the cable I have: http://cgi.ebay.com/Micro-USB-Host-...314427?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3a640778bb
[Xoom General] Flaunt77:
Thanks for the post Roebeet;

This sounds excellent - im happy that xoom has the ability to host - that was the last piece of the puzzle for me - cant wait for the custom roms that implement this ability!

Needed to make a boot.img change, however. I'm going to write up a HOWTO, shortly.
